This pioneering work was not an easy task, it entailed countless difficulties and required patience. Through the years the guidance program, fostered by Miss Daly, has grown and is now recognized by parents, students, and faculty alike as an indispensable service. A pacemaker in this worthy endeavor, Miss Daly has endeared herself to the student body not only because of her tireless spirit and sympathetic assistance, but also as a genuine friend. Miss Daly wins admiration almost instantly as she brings to light in a masterful way apt illustrations that teach lessons or add zip to otherwise dull events. As an adviser she has helped hundreds to make adjustments and decisions that often affect the patterns of their entire lives. To her each person is very important and is given the aid he as a distinct individual needs. In grateful appreciation for the innumerable services she has ren- dered Murray students, the staff takes great pleasure in dedicating this T949 PILOT to Miss Catherine Daly. M.

Beautiful, crisp mornings when your breath hangs in a white vapor and the snow sounds brittle and sharp under your feet. Pine tree branches heavy with their white burden contribute quiet beauty to nature's winter scenery. Numb fingers and toes, red cheeks, and cold noses dominate the season. Hockey players in their bright blue and gold uniforms can be seen practicing on the near-by ponds and lakes long since frozen. The younger fry have their fun tobogganing on the steep hills, and speed skaters practice for national titles at near-by Como Park. This is the time when Murray provides welcomed warmth for those who walk or ride to school. suites AND suckers gqniprs ND Mixes BRIDGEACENTURYSS N Looking the part of a contrite offender is Margaret McNamara standing by the stoye Seated are Marilyn Nelson, Carol Mulroy, and Ruth lmmei Standing l p lling C iols bands e Datcl and Charles Brookins. Jerry Hughes takes a dipper of wate f m the pail hcld by Phillip Nelson Ask where the staff found the per- fect setting for this old fashioned room! You will scarcely believe that the scene is across the street from Murray. The editors borrowed the ac- commodating and lively seventh grad- ers and away went the group to the Shrine on the Luther Theological Seminary Campus. Through the cour- tesy of Dr. T. F. Gullixson, president, the staff was allowed to use this little church for a school room, The willing subjects entered into the spirit of school days -wrote on slates, pulled braids, and drank from the community Clipper. In marked contrast to the long ago is a scene typical of the modern edu- cational trend. Here Charlotte Miller, Beverly Bailey, and Paul Christiansen are broadcasting from St. Paul's VVTCN radio station. Page eleven TEACHERS TAKE WORK, Stencil, stylus, and mimeoscope become familiar words to Miss Valborg Helseth's and Miss Eleanor Steelesmith's business students. Daily bulletins and other school material are elticiently mimeographed by the pupils. Here Ruth Hunt and Joan Button are dem- onstrating their skill under the watchful eye of the two instructors. Down Bergup's alley Mr. Albert Sand- berg, hockey coach, Mr. George Bergup, Mr. Bernard Quinn, physics instructor, and Mr. Robert Ritter, biology instructor, visit be- tween classes. In addition to his teaching wood shop, Mr. Bergup directs the sale ot lockers and stands by to help students who have locker difficulties or forget combina- tions after vacations. Murray's home economics room is always a beehive of activity as girls learn the arts of cooking and sewing. Mrs. Leona Hanson instructs Helen Cerini, sewing at the ma- chine, as Mrs. Elizabeth Baker lends a help- ing hand to Joyce Brusoe who tries on the coat she has made. HOBBIES IN STRIDE ln the modern classroom maps and at- lases furnish a background for understand- ing timely events in this fast-moving world ot today. Bringing many phases ot history and social studies to light in an interesting way, Mrs. Marie Gilbert, Miss Virginia Fer- tig, and Miss Bertha Muedeking make stu- dents conscious ot one world. Merry Christmas in any language means tun and merry making. Mrs. Mary Harmon, Mr. Bernard Winkelman, and Miss Mabel Surratt have really caught the Christmas spirit as seen by the smiles on their laces. Many stories of Christmas are tamiliar to English teachers, Mrs. Harmon and Miss Surratt, but Mr. Vvinkelman, German in- structor, feels no one celebrates Christmas with as' much te tivity s the Qermans. 7 5 -Z,lA,QZ.L' 1144- 4 2'L'Lv fa? Cl 3 ffm 3 Hobbies make a fascinating pastime and provide an escape from daily routine as shown by three ot Murray's mathematics teachers. Miss Olive Batschelet takes excel- lent care of her many plants, and finds much enjoyment in her pitcher collection ot over 300. Miss Louise Smith is very fond of music, but at the moment she seems to be interested in discussing geology with Mrs. Helene Becker. Mrs. Becker has collected many specimens for her study of geology. LEADERS, STUDENTS- MARK EDUCATlON'S PROGRESS wig, Page fourteen Each in his chosen tield ot interest, yet all keenly aware ot education as an enriching experience, are the above leaders. Seated are Mr. John Wooley, Murray's assistant principal, Mr. Selmer Berg, superintendent of St. Paul's public schools, Mr. William Scanlan, principal ot Mur- ray, and Mr. Glenn Varner, director at high schools. Standing and looking at the material under consideration are Owen Eckblom, senior class president, and Charles Grose, president of Murray's Student Council. Here in the atmosphere of sharing ideas and experiences young people learn to appreciate and to evaluate the problems ot the modern school. 1 ' Hr, ' f .

BULLETINS, RESEARCH, WEIGHING AND S0 THE DAY BEGINS The play's the thing which must be selected with a great deal of care and consideration by Miss Florence Vest and the senior class. Librarian Miss Marion Gratz seems to have found a play that she thinks will be a hit with both. Necessary to all dramatic productions is the attractive scenery made by the art department un der the supervision of Miss Marie Darche shovvn holding a sample. Health and physical fitness are extremely important subjects to Mrs. Inez Gugisberg who instructs every thing from ballroom dancing to volley ball in Murray's gymnasium. Mrs. George Bergup, school nurse, con cerned about the health of each person at Murray, does a little checking up on the faculty. Waiting her turn on the scale is Miss Catherine Daly, personnel director. 5' , K.. AND TODAY BECOMES YESTERDAY September T948-Freshmen arrive wide-eyed and full of anticipation to begin their high school life. Sophomores assume that grown-up air deceiving only to the freshmen. Juniors become organized and begin plans for exciting events including the biggest of all-the Prom. By this time, seniors are knee-deep in activities. Football heroes, Student Council offi- cers, Library Club members, Girls' and Boys' Leagues strive to make their last year the best, and to leave behind them memories of a fine class, both to the school and for their own personal satisfaction. Plans for a yearbook that will record the progress made in 1949, and make these memories more lasting, are under way. A curly-haired mascot is created by art editor Kyle Peterson to take the blame for mistakes of the inexperienced editors, picture failures, and budget problems. This little fellow, Sure 'Nuff, becomes fascinated by Murray's many sports and activities, participating actively in certain organiza- tions and silently observing the rest from his post in the window of the iournalism office. But nobody notices him as he watches the months begin to roll by, full of now past pleasures and events, which Sure 'Nuff discovers go with the home- work and extra responsibilities of activities to make school the place where character is formed and per- sonalities improved and well-rounded. He sees great progress made in what pupils fondly call student government under the president, Charles Grose. He witnesses the formation of a new Hi-Y, the Como Park Chapter, and sees the two chapters recognized as organizations of the school. When the seniors pay their visit to Golling's, Sure 'Nuff dons his best T-shirt and goes along. Page sixteen Convinced that his proofs do not do him iustice, he insists upon retakes as do most of the other seniors. Sure 'Nuff particularly loves dress rehearsals and makes a great deal of noise with his fireworks as sound-effects man for the Senior Class Play, You Can't Take It With You. He can't be kept away from the auditorium as the choir practices its operetta, The Chimes of Normandy, and serves faithfully on the makeup committee. One day, while browsing through confidential matters of the PILOT staff, Sure 'Nuff discovers that some of his pals are being sent to have their pic- tures taken in strange costumes. Sure 'Nuff con- ceals himself in the pocket of Don Harvey who he learns is posing as a pioneer with Marlene Steph- ens to depict the theme, Yesterday and Today , with Mary Sue Krebs representing the present, look- ing down at them. Each section is to be introduced by a student of today looking back on the pupil of yesterday. On the faculty and class page, Kenneth Larson witnesses Ralph Engebretson preparing to discipline seventh grader Gladys Smith in the man- ner common in the log school house. Gordon Lind- gren and Richard Swanson would make stiFf com- petition for any team as observed by John David- son. Mary Ellen Hoagland sees Denis Bakke and Mary Higgins as the sedate couple of a nineteenth century school would appear. Now today, Senior Day, is here and The PILOT is yours to enjoy in this present and to keep for another day when time has continued its march of progress of events. SENIOR BOARD First row: Howard Venners, Jerry Gil- lett, Jerry Pickering, treasurer, Miss Louise Pederson, adviser, Art Koch, Beverly Bailey, vice president, Irene Voita. FORTY-NINERS MINE FOR IDEAS Just as the Centennial marks a milestone for Minnesota, so graduation is an important event in the lives of us, the seniors, who comprise Murray's largest graduating class. The freshman year found us engrossed with new friends, changing classes, and searching in vain for the swimming pool supposedly located on the roof. As sophomores we were on to the ropes and spent leisure time at canteens and athletic events. It was in our iunior year that we became organized with the able as- sistance of Miss Valborg l-lelseth and Miss Louise Pederson, class advisers. Successful parties and proiects fol- lowed, climaxed by the Junior-Senior Prom at the Women's City Club. With Owen Eckblom as president, we began our ' A senior year. ln January You Can't Take It With You, the hilarious class play, was pre- sented, and before long plans for graduation were underway. The pleasures of the yea: were broken by the untimely death of one of our class- mates, Louis Peter. Instead of living in the past, however, we seniors look eagerly to the future. What it may hold for us we do not know, but aided by experience and knowledge gained at Murray, we feel well able to cope with the problems that con- front us as citizens in this in- creasingly complex society.

Standing: Mary Atkinson, Barb Proshek, Marge Knowlan, Lenore Huwe. Energy and ideas have seemed to be common property among the members of the iunior class, for everv- one has been bursting with both this past year. Under the inspiring guidance of co-advisers Miss Marie Darche and Miss Virginia Fertig a wide and fun-filled list of activities was planned. Old clothes, old friends, and Old Man Mose were the feature attractions at the Sadie Hawkin's Dance on November TQ. Given in collaboration with the Canteen Committee, this ever popular dance was our first undertaking as an organized class. Hollywood invaded Murray on November 30, in the form of a movie titled The Sullivans . The SRO sign was hung out days in advance. Especially appealing to the appetites of the male population was the popcorn ball sale, December 548. This very successful venture put the class well on the tinancial road to the high spot of the year, our first Junior-Senior Prom. May 27 is the date set for the J. S. The theme, Blue Mist, will be carried out in an ethereal motive in the ballroom of the Leamington Hotel, Minneapolis. Les William's orchestra will furnish the music. As our senior year draws near we look forward to the turning point of the century and of the Class of l95O. 200 irst row: Joanne Tollerud, Pat layden, Albert Anderson, Ber- tard Koalska, Geraldine Fletty, Hana Hooper, Betty Cook Y Pat hannon, Doreen Ronning, Joan De Santis, Jean Freyberger, olly Strenglis, Charles Winter, tory Lou Macziewski 4 Ken- eth Spates, Doris Johnson, 'on Wilson, Agnes Resch, La- 'anche Paulbitski, Sally Mor- is 'V George Evans, George loska, Robert Fender, Paul fhristianson, Dwight Scott, 'ouglas Warfield.

GRID TEAM STRESSES DEFENSIVE GAME Lacking the offensive punch necessary for a cham- pionship eleven, the Pilots completed an eventful season on the gridiron last fall. Possessing a big, experienced line and a small backfield, the Murray men held respect as one of the best defensive teams in the conference. Seniors Ralph DeYoung, Bob Steveken, Gordon Lindgren, Dick Swanson, and Marv Lundgren must be singled out as the stars of the season. Ralph, who was the only Pilot to be chosen for the All-City team, played practically every defensive position on the team, and he was the spearhead of the offense. From the left halfback positon, Bob Steveken had a chance to show his speed and shiftiness on the team's quick- opening T-formation plays. As the Pilots' leading scorer, Marv Lundgren played in top form all season, and he was one of Coach Ralph Engebretson's most reliable ground gainers from his fullback position. Gordon Lindgren was the immovable obiect that stopped the irresistible force as he led the Murray line to one of the best defensive records in the con- ference. Acclaimed by all as one of the best little men in the conference, Dick Swanson proved to be one of the team's most valuable players as the de- fensive spark plug in the backfield. In the season's opener the gridders bowed to an Page thirty-eight experienced Marshall team 8-O in a pre-season non- conference contest. The opening conference game saw the Pilots give way to a strong Central team by a score of 7-O. The Pilot offensive at this stage had not started to roll. In the second conference game the gridders finally broke the Wilson iinx and defeated the Redmen by the score of I4-6. Bob Steveken and Ralph DeYaung tallied for the winners. Looking like the championship team of the previous season, the Pilots smashed Humboldt to the tune of Q7-l9. Blasting along the ground for three scores and a fourth through the air, the footballers had it their own way throughout the contest. Marv Lundgren, Bob Steveken, Ralph DeYoung, and Tom Wegleitner all scored for the winners. Playing fine defensive ball, Murray held a favored Washington team to a O-O tie. Both teams lacked the necessary offensive punch to carry them to pay-dirt , but fans had their money's worth at this ball game. Monroe defeated the Pilots in what was called by many the upset of the year. Marv Lundgren scored in the second quarter for the Pilots but the extra point was blocked. Late in the fourth quarter Monroe scored, kicked the extra point, and sewed up the 7-6 ball game. THIS IS EASY-OR IS IT? Here is action galore in this tie game with Mechanic Arts. Bob Steveken, carrying the ball, is having a path made tor him by Herb Lynch and Gordon Lindgren as the team carries out a reverse play. Alumni Return to Old Haunts w e6t'Q'! Ikea?

LET'S GO PLACES The homecoming game was played with a highly rated and championship-bound Mechanic Arts eleven. The Murray crowd saw an unforgettable battle as the two teams fought for pay territory with one spectacular play following another. By bottling up the Trainer ground game, The Pilots fought Me- chanics to a O-O tie. in the final game of the season the Murray gridders really took their big defeat of the year as ci strong Johnson squad rang up a 20-O total. While Murray relinquished its city crown when Johnson, Mar- shall, and Mechanic Arts ended in a triple tie for the title, the season was anything but mediocre. Senior squad members who had received experience while playing with the T947 Champs distinguished themselves individually, and their knowledge of the game gave confidence and help to new squad members. Ralph DeYoung is ready to go places in a big way as his determined expression shows. Nick Combs of Marshall thinks differently and happens to be right in this Marshall-Murray game. f Page fortyvo ne PUCKSTERS TAKE T. C. TITLE z- Y v-QW .

In play against conference opposition the record was reversed. Getting ott with a good start the bucketeers notched victories over Chaska, St. Agnes, St. Louis Park, St. Paul Park, and Breck before losing to Hastings in an exciting contest. This year the team traveled to Willmar and Benson on the annual Christmas road trip and handily defeated them. Later in the season the Pilots played SPA twice and were victorious on both occasions, Against conterence toes the Pilots were not as tortunate in the vvon-lost column.

Here in G.A.A,, high school girls have the opportunity to embrace one or more of several types ot sports activities. In the tall soccer was a popular game with many, although horseback riding was chosen by several members. The winter program of basketball, swimming, bowling, and tumbling kept the maiority ot the girls in trim during the dark season. At the same time seniors and juniors eyed their ever- increasing points necessary towards the coveted all-city letter. Spring brought a lively interest in tennis and baseball as well as in riding. The G.A.A. displayed talent in other ways as they sponsored social activities. The homecoming button sale and the dance began the social side of the year as the girls joined with the M Club in this school-wide undertaking. Coming up next Thursday, May nineteenth is the annual G.A.A. and M Club banquet at which time letter winners will be honored and new otticers announced.

Have you ever seen a girl gleefully eyeing one of Murray's athletes? Surely she sees something that in- terests her. ls it the boy with his blond, curly hair or his broad shoulders? Nine times out of ten it is not the sports hero but his precious sweater that she has in mind. This is only one ot the problems encountered by members of the M Club during the year-who shall wear the sweater? The organization is composed ot athletes who have proven their worth in various sports and among whose members are many of the athletic stars of tomorrow. While the coveted letter is admired by the feminine population, only the owners know the hours of effort and toil that go into the earning of the attractive M. This year the M Club joined with the G.A.A. in sponsoring the homecoming dance and assembly. This event, traditional at Murray, is one that active M Club members plan tor, as the old grads return to see how the new crop of lettermen carry out the M Club's aims and ideals. President Ralph DeYoung planned with a committee for a social event in mid-winter, an old-fashioned sleigh- ride. However, Minnesota decided to have Florida weather at that time and the event was canceled. ln May two events of importance are on the calen- der. A letter assembly will be top billing at which time all boys who have earned letters this year will be given awards. A second event is that of the induction ot the senior members into the Murray Alumni M Club, an active organization ot former letter men. OFlicers during the year were: Ralph DeYoung, presi- dent, Bob Steveken, vice president, Gordon Lindgren, treasurer.

Of The Yearbook STUDENT COUNCIL RECEIVES NATIONAL RECOGNITION IN '49 . ,. . U e . , .. ' ' if sf' 'ix - I o wt X. J 0 l '. ' . k Q 0 IT'S THE SPRING BANQUET- This gala affair is enioyed each year by both the old and new board members. Here seated, from left to right, are Bob Christensen, Lindsay Christlieb, Joyce Tyson, Barbara Proshek, Dagmar Wagner, Louise Weigt, Charles Grose, Mrs. Ruth Eddy, Joyce Christesen, Pat Carlson, David Briggs, August Haugan, Ken Larson, Pat MacDonald, Barbara Biornstad, Diane Grove, and Eleanor Tyson. The outlook which the school of today holds on school discipline is entirely different from the principles of a century ago. The rule and hickory stick, the stool and dunce cap have been replaced by student interest in management. Student Council has taken on new sig- nificance this year. For the first time at Murray, stu- dent participation played a maior role in the school's government. Under the direction of Mrs. Ruth Eddy, adviser, and Charles Grose, president, an experiment in student government was undertaken. Study halls were efficiently managed by the pupils, lunchrooms were made pleasant by luke-box music every Friday, and an entertaining assembly schedule was planned. The first two duties which this organization performs every year are the formulation of the activities' calen- dar and the assignment of seats for auditorium pro- Page fifty-four grams. Through the March of Dimes, the Community Chest, and the Christmas Seals, Murray students con- tribute to the welfare of the community. The Council handles these drives through assemblies and homeroom collections. This year presented another first for the Murray Student Council as it was admitted to the National Federation of Student Councils, from which it has re- ceived a charter. Delegates assisted in the formation of a constitution at the first annual state Student Council meeeting. The Murray group was elected vice president of its district. All this activity has met with great interest on the part of the pupils. The newly elected Student Council officers are looking forward to more student participa- tion in the year to come. President Charles Grose has endeavored this year to make homeroom representatives, as well as board members, conscious of the need of selling student self- government to everyone. In this he has succeeded to an extent that the entire group and its adviser, Mrs. Ruth Eddy, can be proud of the Student Council leading the 7- ' ' -f .cj 7 way-toward! unifying school principlesr 5During 'the statek convention -of Student ,CouncilS, Murray's members hobsea out-bfftown delegates as theirigxrests.

Besides group participation, individual entries were placed in various competitive contests, ranging from outside sponsors to district and state events.

IS IT GIRLS' LEAGUE DAY? A familiar question is the above as every Murray girl is a member of this excellent organization. Here seated are Miss Catherine Daly, adviser, with Mary Atkinson, vice president, and Joan Proshek, president. Standing are pro- gram chairman, Shirley Swensen, treasurer, Audrey Grove, secretary, Margie Johnsen. Going Skating? If you are, here is Miss Audrey Heinz of the Simplicity Pattern Company explaining the advantageous points of the skating cos- tume modeled by Ann Rohleder. Catherine Zandlo is shown wearing a well-tailored winter outfit. In the good old golden-rule days there was no opportunity for great-grandmother to strut across a stage displaying the stiff, brocaded gown she had just completed. In addition to hav- ing no style shows, yesterday's school was without home eco- nomics classes, and girls had to depend upon their mothers' ex'- perience and instruction. Today, girls have an opportunity to follow the latest fashions. Two style shows were presented by the Girls' League in coop- eration with the Simplicity Pattern Company. Members of Mrs. Leona Hanson's sewing classes were the models. Under the guid- ance of Miss Catherine Daly, the Girls' League sponsored a wide variety of programs, the tirst of which was a talent show fea- turing this year's new members. Its birthday in February was celebrated with a party and an honest-to-goodness birthday cake. Of course, funds are necessary for activities and excellent programs, and the girls worked hard on their chief money-rais- ing proiect, the Caramel Apple Sale. The result of this effort was a mother-daughter party for the senior girls. The organization, realizing the need of a set of china for the school's use, began the collection of pennies, dimes, and nickels for this proiect. After each meeting members were asked to slip a few cents into collection boxes at the door. .loan Proshek, president, feels that it has been a pleasant and satisfactory year for Girls' League.

CLASS PLAY IS SMASH HIT Look out for that firecracker! Gee, are those snakes real? Here, kitty, kitty, kitty! All were familiar statements during the rehearsal period of the Senior Class Play, You Can't Take It With You. A double cast was trained under the direction of Miss Florence Vest, and for weeks Murray's auditorium resounded with firework explosions, Xylophone notes, and type- writer keys, together with a background of toe dancing and the banging of a printing press. Chuck Whitehead and Harold Helgeson had fun mastering the art of pipe smoking while Don Kosel and Chuck Michaelson studied extra hours on the Xylophone. Groucho and Harpo, two small black and white kittens, received as much attention from the students during rehearsal as from the audience the nights of the performances. You Can't Take It With You is the story of one family who believed in doing whatever each enjoyed most. Everyone was happy pursuing his own interests until Alice, the only really sane member of the household, fell in love with Tony, the son of a Wall Street financier. Tony's parents arrived unexpectedly at the Sycamore's house only to be arrested by police and thrown in iail. For awhile it seemed as though things would never turn out Barbara Geddes and Roger Wood in a scene that proves true love can run smoothly. right for Tony and Alice, but Grandpa stepped in at this point and made Tony's father realize money and Wall Street were not his real sources of happiness.

Where can I find the life HISTOFY of The grasshopper'? These queries, asked of Li- brary Club staff members, illustrate the varying interests of students who daily use the school's modern library. Established in i926 by Miss Marion Gratz, the small library with its hrst pioneer- ing staff, forerunners of today's L. C.'ers, has grown rapidly until it now boasts one of the finest collections of its kind. The ac- tive Library Club has sixty members, who make it their duty to help library patrons with anything from circulating books to finding the last season's record of the Bos- ton Red Sox.

Outstanding displays per- taining to the school calendar were arranged for the exhibit case and bulletin boards by the publicity committee. The annual initiation provided an opportunity for new members to become acquainted with the old timers . Library Club auxiliary lessons began with zest in January, and before long the traditional banquet, where pins are presented to seniors who have fulfilled the requirements, closed the organization's roster of social activities. 1 l P 9 ' Y, vice president, Phyllis Johnson, secretary, Genevieve Kulenkamp, president, Paul Mielke, corresponding secretary.

EVERY STUDENT IS A MEMBER An organization that carries a program ot service, both national and local, is Murray's Junior Red Cross Chapter. Under the direction ot Mrs. Agnes Smith, the students have added another record of outstanding service. During the tall all rooms participated in Hlling boxes tor distribution overseas. Chapter board members had the responsibility of checking and packing. At holiday time the Red Cross ottlcers found hours somewhere, and they helped to decorate the Veteran's Hospital tor Christmas. With the slogan that Every Student ls a Member as Soap ls Needed its motto the Murray group launched its annual drive March l4. Preceded by a program tor the entire school, the representatives and board members asked for gen- erous contributions and received them. This year the school was represented in the St. Paul Red Cross Council by Beverly Bailey who held the ottice ot second vice president.

While the majority ot the twenty-two members are connected with the school's publications, many find time for participation in other activities. Quill and Scroll is primarily an honorary organi- zation tor individuals who have given service in the journalism department or who have excelled in cre- ative writing. This year the group headed by Mary Sue Krebs, president, decided to go world minded and help Murray support an Austrian child. ln order to do this the group gave up financing the yearly creative writing contest. Two initiations, one in the tall and the other in May, gave members an opportunity to get together and enjoy lite away from ems and picas .

YESTERDAY A DREAM Traditional Christmas songs and carols were present- ed by the choir and soloists at an assembly and eve- ning performance ot the annual candlelight program. For the hrst time in Murray's history, the majestic strains of Handel's great Hallelujah Chorus echoed through the auditorium. This and the singing ot carols in the halls were the choir's inspiring contribution to the spirit of Christmas, which was enlarged by a special trip which the carolers made to Ancker Hospital. Talent was discovered among the junior class mem- bers ot the A Choir during tryouts tor the i948 op- eretta, H. M. S. Pinafore, and a number played leading roles in the production. The third operetta by Gilbert and Sullivan to be presented at Murray, Pinafore is the story of a lowly sailor in love with the captain's daughter who must choose between him and her high social rank. The situation is reversed, however, when a nursemaid ot the captain and sailor admits that she confused the two as children.

TODAY A CULTURAL JOY Indispensable to Murray High School is its eighty- voice choir. Its well-trained members offer a marked contrast to the singing school of Minnesota's territorial days. Saint Paul from its early history has always been as- sociated with cultural achievements, and in that respect Murray's choir has added to the advancement of music in giving both participants and listeners an opportunity to appreciate the best in music. This year the choir, directed by Mrs. Helen McGeever, has contributed an outstanding year's work to Murray's history. Early in the fall choir members chose Paul Richardson as their presi- dent, Joan Piper as vice president, Suzanne Preus as secretary, and Donald Harvey as treasurer. The busy schedule for i948-49 began apprehensive- ly with the procedure of testing voices which was re- peated as a demonstration lesson for Dr. VVinslow's class in music education from the University of Minne- sota. After members had been placed in their respective sections, the choir was ready to begin rehearsing for assembly programs. At a meeting of the M. E. A., four members from each of the eight sections were selected to sing in the All-State Chorus led by Don Craig, one of Fred Waring's choral directors. These numbers were repeated for an assembly at which Charles Grose, an active A Choir student, directed, and for a P. T. A. meeting at which time Miss lylathilda Heck acted as guest conductor. A date of significance to the choir and to every Mur- rayite with romantic inclinations is February i4, Valen- tine's Day. Singing telegrams, sponsored by the Mur- curie, were sung by groups of two and three choir members acting as cupid's messengers. A great deal of excitement accompanied the big question of the year-what operetta was to be given? The Chimes of Normandy or The Bells of Corneville was scarcely selected when a new problem arose. Try- outs for leads uncovered a great deal of talent, which made choosing the large cast extremely difficult. After extensive tryouts and keen competition the parts were double and triple cast. Hours of practice during and after school to perfect solos and choruses, rehearse the orchestra, and prepare pre-views resulted in two per- formances given in April when the choir successfully and ably presented the finished operetta. In spite of the hard work necessary, the cast found time to have fun and to laugh at their problems. Still the year's program for the choir was not over. As in previous years following the operetta, the choir directed its energy to more practicing so that members might honor the Class of i949 at baccalaureate and commencement. Other music students augment the A Choir with programs in and outside of school. The Harvest, a can- tata, was given by members of the B Choir, who re- hearsed numbers to be sung by the A Choir in addi- tion to their own in case extra voices were needed. For the Christmas program of Girls' League, the Girls' Glee Club presented a group of songs and carols with so- loists. The Girls' Sextette and the Boys' Quartet or Melody Four are two musical groups that have become well- known outside of school as well as to the students for their excellent singing and lively programs.

Bright fall days and the sharp October air gave cr fitting atmosphere to the early dawn ex- cursions to hang posters and to after-school campaign- ing. Early in the week signs, posters, ribbons, and other publicity ideas kept the student body informed about the five queen candidates. The girls chosen smiled will- ingly os their worried managers did last minute ground- work.

To everyone who is responsible for the organization of Boys' League congratulations are surely the order of the day. Both officers and board members have been building the foundations during these past months for a promising Boys' League future. While many boys have been engaged in sports or affiliated with other clubs, both Principal W. J. Scanlan and Assistant Principal John Wooley felt that an or- ganization was needed that would in some way unify the common interests of high school boys. Meetings each month were of interest to members as sports, occupational opportunities, summer work, civic attitudes, and other topics received consideration. Mr. Wooley, adviser, aided by president Jack Folsom and the program committee, endeavored to secure top speakers and entertainment. While our field has been somewhat limited this year, comments Mr. Wooley, we hope to have a very active and useful Boys' League next fall. lt takes time to get rolling. We aim to hold the interest of our mem- bers, to aid all boys who need individual help, and to be of service to the school. The organization's social event of the season was a valentine dance sponsored iointly with Girls' League. During intermission Patricia Palarine was chosen as the queen of the valentine celebration. Jack Folsom, president, deserves special mention for helping to get Boys' League into the field of the school's activities.

Acquire More Than Technical Skills The better positions in business demand more of young people today than a working knowledge of a few business skills. Successful applicants for top-flight positions must have pleasing personalities, initia- tive, poise, enthusiasm, and ability to get along with others. Fortunately, these qualities can be ac- quired by study and training just as surely as skill in typing, shorthand, and accounting can be acquired. This program of study is called Career Training here at the Minnesota School of Business. In these classes, the fine .art of successful human relations is carefully studied under the guidance of capable teachers. , School of Business 24 S. 7TH STREET-LINCOLN 6721 A ouniurv scHooL smcz ian Page seventy'nine Note Books Pens - Pencils Folders Envelopes BUY AT THE SCHOOL SUPPLY STORE An efticient and busy staff comprise the Student Supply Store group supervised by Mrs. Helene Becker.
